I wanna give it a try, but I've been looking at the servers and I haven't found the one for me and what I'll use the account for. Nor do I know of any account on a pixelfed server I could be interested in following...to just follow accounts on completely different federated servers it wouldn't make any sense to me.
I feel like instagram is one one of those apps - at least the way I use it - that relies on a lot of your irl friends having it as well. I would love for them to be open to signing up to some fediverse platform but we're not there right now sadly.
Yeah I’m curious if all the people in the comments that say they are using and enjoying it also have friends that signed up or if it’s just all meme accounts.
I made an account on 2 servers and downloaded 3 different apps for it and it's not working but I'll try again later
Why don't followed tags show up in my feed on pixelfed
yep, the same for me. lately my home feed of reddit a bit boring for me. maybe way less content. even i used apollo with custom own api to ignore their official app, i ended up opening memmy and mlem. memmy for lemmy.world and lemmy.ml while mlem for lemmynsfw.com instance. my nsfw stuff now can have separate app. lol. but im happy
Is there even a proper mobile app for Android and iOS yet? Pixelfed won’t take off because the concept is dependent on a smartphone app.
If you like Lemmy, you should really try out Kbin. Its mostly the same but better. You can still sub all your lemmy communities but with a much more modern interface.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
